London Biggin Hill airport-based Zenith Aviation has recently bolstered its maintenance capabilities to include Bombardier Global BD700 line approval. This accreditation sees Zenith Aviation now hold capability with considerable scope to cover the most popular Bombardier variants operated in Europe. The 20 strong team within the MRO department is headed up by director of maintenance Aaron Hughes, and all technical staff are OEM trained and have in excess of 100 years' combined experience on Bombardier products.

Zenith Aviation is an EASA Part 145 and Part M approved organisation that provides line and base maintenance services in addition to charter flights and aircraft management. Its scope of work includes an A1 full base rating on variants such as the Learjet 45/75 and Challenger 300/350/604/605/650, as well as the recent Bombardier BD700 Global line approval and C5 and C14 battery and wheel bay capabilities.

With its own dedicated hanger at the airport, Zenith Aviation can support up to three aircraft at one time. The team also provide an AOG response service within UK and Europe.

Hughes comments: “Over the years, we've worked hard to ensure our team is at the top of its game. Our aim is to expand our business footprint at Biggin Hill and overseas in order to satisfy the requirements of future customers seeking our services, and we're thrilled to have received the addition of the BD700 Global onto our Part 145 approval. We look forward to forging new relationships with operators of Bombardier Learjet, Challenger and Global models as well as developing our existing relationships.”
